- When cis-2-decalone is dissolved in ether containing a trace of HCl, an equilibrium is established with trans-2-decalone. The latter ketone predominates in the equilibrium mixture. Propose a mechanism for this isomerization and account for the fact that the trans isomer predominates at equilibrium.A problem often encountered in the oxidation of primary alcohols to acids is that esters are sometimes produced as by-products. For example, oxidation of ethanol yields acetic acid and ethyl acetate: Propose a mechanism to account for the formation of ethyl acetate. Take into account the reversible reaction between aldehydes and alcohols:Enamines normally react with methyl iodide to give two products: one arising from alkylation at nitrogen and the second arising from alkylation at carbon. For example, Heating the mixture of C-alkylation and N-alkylation products gives only the product from C-alkylation. Propose a mechanism for this isomerization.
- The Stork reaction is a condensation reaction between an enamine donor and an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl acceptor. The overall reaction consists of a three-step sequence of formation of an enamine from a ketone, Michael addition to an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, and hydrolysis of the enamine in dilute acid to regenerate the ketone. Consider the Stork reaction between cyclohexanone and propenal Draw the structure of the product of the enamine formed between cyclohexanone and dimethylamine. - Michael addition to an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, and - hydrolysis of the enamine in dilute acid to regenerate the ketone.What steps are needed to convert benzene into p-isobutylacetophenone, a synthetic intermediate used in the synthesis of the anti-infl ammatory agent ibuprofen.Treatment of cis-4-bromocyclohexanol with HO– affords compound A and cyclohex-3-en-1-ol.

When theisomeric halide (R)-2-bromo-2,5-dimethylnonane is dissolved in CH3OHunder the same conditions, nucleophilic substitution forms an opticallyactive solution. Draw the products formed in each reaction, and explainwhy the difference in optical activity is observed.Explain this observation: Ethyl 3-phenylpropanoate (C6H5CH2CH2CO2CH2CH3) reacts with electrophiles to afford ortho- and para-disubstituted arenes, but ethyl 3-phenylprop-2-enoate (C6H5CH=CHCO2CH2CH3) reacts with electrophiles to afford meta- disubstituted arenes.
- Both pentane-2,4-dione and ethyl acetoacetate have two carbonyl groups separated by a single carbon atom. Although an equilibrium mixture of pentane-2,4-dione tautomers contains 76% of the enol forms, an equilibrium mixture of ethyl acetoacetate tautomers contains only 8% of the enol forms. Suggest a reason for this difference.complete the following synthesesThe Stork reaction is a condensation reaction between an enamine donor and an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl acceptor.
